FBA 310

The FBA Type 310 was a 1930s French touring flying boat or amphibian built by the Franco-British Aviation Company.

Designed to sell into a growing market for touring flying-boats in the 1920s and 1930s, the 310 was a shoulder-wing flying boat with stabilizing floats attached to the struts that braced the wing to the hull.

[1] An amphibian version was also built as the 310/1, but the added weight of the landing gear meant that only one passenger could be carried.

Design and development ceased in 1931 with the lack of both orders and funds, and the factory closed in 1934 when the company was sold to Société des Avions Bernard.
